Madrid are favourites to win this game and I think that the major loses they suffered from their previous Champions league match against Lille and that of the El Classico would motivate them to do better, fans are not really impressed with the outcome of those games therefore I believe Ancelotti would try to set things right by beating Ac Milan so he'll continue to get the trust of the fan. Moreover they're playing at the Bernabeu with a weaker Ac Milan squad, Milan have not really been in a good fork this season, they're even finding it difficult to win against weaker teams in the Serie A so I wonder how they'll be able to face Madrid and win today, this is the Champions League and Real Madrid is not Inter Milan, i don't see Madrid losing two matches consecutively but would rather use it as an opportunity to right their wrongs. If they mount much pressure on Milan there's a possibility of winning the match without a goal reply from Ac Milan.

PSV - Girona match was good, it was a very easy and comfortable match for PSV and they won 4-0.
Girona received a red card in the 55th minute and were down 1 man, after that PSV scored 2 more goals and finished the match.

Now I will watch the Real Madrid - Milan match, I hope it will be a good match with lots of goals and we will enjoy it.

The team that Dortmund are going to be playing against are not a very strong team in the champions league and their position on the table also says the same. Dortmund should use this to their advantage to get that three points to make them be situated in a better position on the champions league table standing. They’ve lost their last match and it was natural that they couldn’t hold on to the opponent as they are more stronger than them. They may view this match as an easy match but it’s better they still try their best to win this match and not look down on the team too much and end up in surprises. The champions league is the league of the champions and every team matters and cannot just be looked down on always. Let’s see what is going to be the result of this match in the end.

Yes, that's right. Nuri Sahin's team is under pressure after a series of inconsistent performances in the last few matches, of course in this match he will give his best for Dortmund so that their confidence will increase, especially this match will take place at Signal Iduna Park, this will make Dortmund get higher spirits from their supporters to win.

On the other hand, the Sturm Graz team also has a bad report in the Champions League so far, they have always lost in the last three matches, which they lost to Sporting Lisbon, Club Brugge, and Brest. Of course against Dortmund who are also above them in quality will make them unable to do much in this match they will definitely play defensively all the time and only rely on counterattacks.

Sturm Graz also has a bad record when meeting German representative teams. So in this match Dortmund will win easily, my prediction is Dortmund will win big in this match with a victory of more than 3 goals.

In the match between Real Madrid and AC Milan, I expect an exciting and intense game. Despite Real’s recent setbacks, especially the Champions League loss to Lille and their defeat in El Clasico, the Spanish club is usually strong in high-stakes games, which keeps them as favorites. However, these recent failures hint at a potential crisis in Real, so I believe Madrid might make a costly mistake and lose.

Milan has also been inconsistent this season, but they can surprise in big matchups, as they did against Inter. My prediction is that Milan will either win or at least avoid defeat.

I am looking forward to Liverpool vs Leverkusen. Liverpool winning from behind in the last Premier League match and to become the point table leader in PL will motivate the boys today to win even if it requires hard work. I have no idea about this Leverkusen team but it seems bookies are considering them  a good contestant for us. The odd to win is 3/4 which is high enough to understand the the team Leverkusen is a good team. However I hope we will win this match.

Valencia wouldn't be a threat to Real Madrid even if Real Madrid have suffered a huge loss to barcelona. Valencia on the other hand have their own issues this season and at such do not stand a very  good chance to win or get a draw against Real Madrid. Despite that huge defeat against Barcelona, Real Madrid could still be a better team and still have a good chance of getting themselves into the race because the points difference isn't that much and am sure Real Madrid is aware of this are would do everything possible to raise their standards.

That is what I am thinking. Real Madrid will be the favorite to win the game because Ac Milla is in poor form and Madrid is at home, so they will have more opportunities than them. I am confident that Real Madrid will not lose this night because they did not play any matches last week due to Valencia's flow, so they are in better shape. Let's see how the game ends. And Madrid lost their last game in the La Liga tournament against Barcelona, and they will not want to lose back-to-back league games while also losing in the Champions League. Manchester City's upcoming match against Sporting will be challenging due to the team's current state. since some of there key player are not in better shap that will make Manchester City strongly to win tonight.

I can't predict the match, and as you can see, they gave Manchester City a big 2 odds and Sporting a 3 odd plus, so this game will be tough, but I believe Manchester City is still the favorite to win, but Sporting is playing at home, so they can give Manchester City a tough time and probably get three points against them. Even Bournemouth has a chance to face Manchester City in the league, and as everyone knows, Sporting is stronger than Bournemouth, therefore Manchester City must perform well in order to win tonight.

Now Girona is only playing with 10 players after Arnau Martinez received a red card in the 55th minute. So it looks like Girona can no longer be expected to turn things around in this match. because even though Girona managed to make some improvements, playing with 10 players really meant that Girona could only play more carefully. PSV does have the potential to score goals again in this match because they should now be able to play more comfortably because they are only playing against Girona who are playing with 10 players.

Everyone thinks they may have a hard time against Juventus. Juventus is a somewhat strong team defensively. However, they cannot show much impact in the offensive area. This means that Juventus may not score goals but they can also concede goals. Therefore, I think the favorite of the match will be a draw. Although Lille is a very good team, a draw against Juventus can also be considered a good score for them.

I don't know why Lille are the underdogs for the bookies will they not be able to win at home? At least this will be a doubt even though the odds offered by the bookies are too big for Lille there is still a possibility of a draw.

In other CL matches Lille when playing against big Spanish teams, whether home or away, they have been able to win, so they have a sense of motivation to play at home to win.

I can't understand the criticism of Nuri Şahin after the Real Madrid match because there is a huge difference in quality between the two teams and Dortmund did their best but still couldn't win. I don't think there is anything to criticize. Dortmund overcame this defeat easily and beat Leipzig. They showed the reaction that a good team should show in this match.

As you said, there is a serious difference in quality and experience between Sturm Graz and Dortmund. I think Dortmund will easily win this match. When the advantage of playing on their home field is added, Dortmund can score more than 2 goals in this match. It will be an enjoyable match to watch.

The comparison is too far now for Dortmund and it would indeed be ridiculous if they lose this match where they play home with an opponent who is actually quite a big difference in terms of level.

Looking at the current odds of only 1.2 only shows that Dortmund are very favorites for 3 points in this match and indeed it is a true thing because after all for a bet of 1.2 when Dortmund against Graz who even in 3 matches they have never tasted victory even though it is certain that Dortmund are favorites in this match.

It's just that even so Dortmund must pay attention that Graz is sometimes very difficult because of its defense even though their attack pattern is bad but Graz will try their best to survive so that a draw can be obtained and Dortmund's task now is how they can get goals from the Graz defense which will definitely be all out.

Sturm is not a worthy opponent for Borussia Dortmund in this match. I don't see Sturm being able to trouble Nuri Sahin's troops. Securing 3 points can be said to be not too difficult for Dortmund, especially with the advantage of playing at home. I think there will be many goals scored at Signal Iduna Park tonight because in the previous 3 matches Dortmund has scored 12 goals.
betting on them is the right choice.

However, on the other hand, there is something surprising for me in another match that is currently taking place between PSV vs Girona for now the Eredivisie representative is temporarily leading 2-0 over the La Liga representative, it seems that Girona will have difficulty competing in the UCL, their performance is not like last season when competing in La Liga.

I think Dortmund will win the Dortmund - Graz match because the match is in Germany and Dortmund wants to use the advantage of the last match. With this victory, Dortmund will be able to be at the top of the Champions League again. Therefore, it will be a critical match because they still have a chance in the Champions League because they lost the previous match against Real Madrid.

The first half has ended and the temporary score is 1-2 for the Slova Bratislava vs Dinamo Zagreb match and 2-0 for the PSV vs Girona match. And talking about Girona, they are already quite a lot behind, namely 2 goals. But in the second half Girona inevitably had to be more aggressive in attacking. Because their target now is to catch up with these two goals and balance the position. And maybe PSV could have reduced the intensity of their attacks in the second half which Girona could have taken advantage of. But if it turns out PSV still sticks with the same strategy as in the first half then I think PSV could actually score another goal against Girona. But to be honest, hoping for Girona to win this match seems quite difficult.

For sure Real Milan is the big game of the evening and Milan will lose.

Liverpool haven't played a good team so far in the champions League. They are playing well but we will know how far they will go in the champions League if they play a proper team like Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester city, For them to be considered among the favourite to win the champions league they have to play any of these teams and win them with a good score line. If you check the teams they have played so far in the champions League, none of them is currently doing well in their leagues. It's today that they are going to face an opponent that's a bit stronger than the previous ones that they have faced since the beginning of the champions League. Let's see how they will perform tonight.

It looks like there will be lots of goals scored in this round of matches again. because we just look at the two ongoing matches and it turns out that both of them have scored at least 2 goals in the first half which is still ongoing. As you said, in the Slovan vs Dinamo match there will be goals again and well now the score has changed to 1-2 in favor of Dinamo Zagreb. Meanwhile, for the PSV vs Girona match, it seems I was wrong about Girona. I favored Girona in this match but PSV seemed to have dominated well and broke Girona's goal with a score of 2-0. This will really be a difficult match for Girona because they were 2 goals behind in the first half. It looks like Girona is really in a difficult position in the UCL. Because of the 3 matches that Girona has played, they have only won 1.

Yeah I wish me luck.

Dinamo Zagreb managed to equalize to 1-1 there is still a possibility to win, hope so Zagreb wins.

PSV win Girona still 1 goal down... Of course there is still a chance for Girona to create a goal opportunity.

I wonder how it will end.
